5:39Now PlayingThis caller tells LBC it is "of course" it's alright to beat your wife as long as you don't make her bleed or bruise her, and she should obey her husband.
During a debate over Sharia law being kept apart from UK law, one call to Maajid Nawaz had to be heard to be believed.
Ali called Maajid Nawaz to say he found the LBC presenter too critical of Islam.
Maajid came back and said the caller was right, that he wanted "reform of Islam," and he didn't think the way women were treated was right.
Ali said under "Islamic law women have got plenty of rights."
The caller said it was right that a woman can only have half the inheritance of a man because "when she gets married she gets half from the husband as well."
When Maajid asked the caller if he agreed a "sister should only have half the inheritance of her brother," Ali was quick to say "of course."
So Maajid asked, "do you think a wife should obey her husband?"
And Ali's reply "she has to obey her husband," adding women should bow to their husbands.
The caller said, "everybody has got to endorse that."
